One of the European Union's priorities and vital tasks is to disseminate information in all languages. Twenty-three language communities have established a common working environment in order to present a consistent identity of the European Union institutions to citizens. This publication demonstrates that multilingualism need not be a source of disparity as it provides a common point of reference for the different language groups, as well as the institutions, bodies and agencies, which have multiplied over recent years. It draws together linguistic resources, turning apparent disparity into a source of unity between all those involved in producing texts for the European Union.

This report analyzes the relationship between policies regulating the teaching profession in Europe and the attitudes, practices, and perceptions of teachers. It covers initial teacher education, continuing professional development, transnational mobility, teacher demographics, working conditions, and the profession's attractiveness. The focus is on nearly two million lower secondary education teachers across 28 EU Member States, along with Iceland, Liechtenstein, Montenegro, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Norway, Serbia, and Turkey. Utilizing Eurydice and Eurostat/UOE data, as well as a secondary analysis of TALIS 2013, the report combines qualitative and quantitative evidence, referencing the year 2013/14. The Eurydice Network aims to understand and explain the organization and functioning of various education systems in Europe, providing descriptions, comparative studies, indicators, and statistics. All publications are freely available on the Eurydice website or in print upon request. Through its efforts, Eurydice promotes understanding, cooperation, trust, and mobility at both European and international levels, coordinated by the EU Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency.

This volume comprises 82 technical papers selected from the 110 ongoing projects. To improve the value of the book as a source for public information and justification, summaries of all projects launched in 1984 and 1985 have also been included. The contributions are topically arranged to facilitate easy access by the reader.
